Link not working ...

It appears that MySQL is having problems ... (is this a surprise? MySQL isn't fit for Enterprise work.)

Here's the error I'm seeing:

Unable to connect to database server

This either means that the username and password information in your settings.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the MySQL database server. This could mean your hosting provider's database server is down.

Web host was upgrading MySQL (without notifying me first!) and that's why it went down for a short bit. My apologies.

The host is actually sponsoring the site so I still decided to stick with them for a while, but otherwise I would've moved it to my VPS already where these sorts of things don't tend to happen (more control).

Cheers
